In depth
Verdict
Rebel Turn has been in poor form over fences and it's over three years since he won over hurdles but this is such a weak handicap that it wouldn't be a shock to see him bounce back. Young Dev had a spell in bumpers before reverting to hurdles but his jumping has let him down. Glen Of Aherlow makes his handicap debut but has been well beaten in all starts in maiden company while Marino Marvel is 0-30 though has bits and pieces of form that would put him in the frame. BEE A BENEFICIARY landed an equally low-grade handicap at Kilbeggan where the step-up to 3m appeared to suit. She was placed at this trip several times around this time a year ago and looks the obvious form pick with just a 4lb rise to contend with.
